Louisiana can be explored far from the usual routes. Next to the bayous and New Orleans, the state hides cemeteries where voodoo priestesses rest, chapels filled with ex-votos, plantations known for their ghosts, and even an abandoned amusement park from Hurricane Katrina. Some places remember the Civil War, others tell stories of industrial accidents that turned a lake into a giant whirlpool. You can also find museums full of thousands of found objects, a replica of the Eiffel Tower made from pieces sent from Paris, or an oak tree with chimes that make music when the wind blows. In Laplace, the Frenier cemetery recalls a voodoo priestess's prophecy before the storm of 1915. Near Erath, Lake Peigneur still bears scars from a 1980 drilling accident that created a whirlpool swallowing barges and platforms. In St. Francisville, the Grace Church tells how Union and Confederate soldiers paused their fighting to hold Masonic funerals. These places talk about local traditions, forgotten stories, and daily life in Louisiana, well beyond the usual jazz and gumbo clichés. They show a state where the past stays alive, where every place has an extraordinary story.
